Yesterday i've finally got my new RECARO Ergomed E seats installed. Man, what a difference to the original ones. I really get "assimilated" by my car, when i "enter" the seats. There's a much better response from the chassis now.

Because of the seat airbags, i had to look for replacement seats, which also have those. Installing seats without airbags? No way. By the law you are not allowed to decrease a car's security (-features).

So there was only one company left: RECARO.

Another problem was, that there are no seat consoles available for the D-Max "over here". My Isuzu dealer gave me the address of a company, which builts special seats solutions for handicapped people.

They built an own console for Recaro seats in a D-Max, which was tested by the german authorities and is allowed to be used.

So it came, that i had to drive 300 kms into deep Bavaria and returned with a smile on my back.

You would have returned with a smile on your back and a very deep hole in your wallet I bet.....although they're probably a couple of hundred bucks over there , over here you'd be lucky to see much change out of $4000...each!

In Germany you'll have to pay 4.700,-- Euros for two new seats like mine. Installing included. I could get a pair of two year old ones, in nearly brand new condition, for € 2.000,--. Plus the consoles, installing and the paperwork. At the end it has cost me 1.500,-- Euros less than new ones.
